The effective surface of lens was studied for injection molding process and to enable mass production of f-theta lens, which is the primary component of laser printers and laser scanning systems. Injection molding is an optimal method if f-theta lens is frequently used for the mass production of plastic lenses as an aspherical lens that requires ultra-precision. A uniform injection molding system should be maintained to produce high quality lenses. Additionally, to maintain these injection molding systems, various factors such as pressure, speed, temperature, mold and cooling should be considered. However, a lens with the optical characteristics of an f-theta lens can be obtained. The effects of melting and cooling of plastic resin on the effective surface of f-theta lenses and the numerous factors that affect the injection molding process were studied.

The quality of product depends on a lots of injection molding conditions at each operation stage and mainly was effected by pressure and temperature. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between the product quality and the distribution of pressure in a cavity with operation condition change. Specimen having some ribs was designed and the mold was prepared and temperature and pressure sensors were installed in the mold. PP was used and pressure distribution was measured with operation condition change. The relationship between the sink mark and the pressure in a cavity was investigated by measurement of the level of sink mark. The level of sink mark was decreased at the cross of plane and rib by increasing of pressure in a cavity, so the pressure should be controlled properly in order to get the required quality.

A Study of birefringence in an aspheric lens of injection molding became more important to improve its optical properties. In the present study, the experimental study was carried out to investigate the relationship between birefringence and injection molded conditions. The processing factors are conditions include packing pressure, packing time, injection speed, melt temperature of optical resin and wall temperature. Birefringence was observed figures by using a polarizer in light. This experiments were carried out using the simulation software and injection molding machine.

The major parts of a vacuum cleaner are molded. The vacuum cleaner works in multi-load conditions. Therefore, the designer needs to optimize the structure and injection molding conditions simultaneously. Here, the main factor of design is the rib shape and thickness. The greater the rib thickness, the greater the stiffness of the structure. However, it causes an increase in weight. On the other hand, the lower the rib thickness, the greater the increase in the injection pressure. However, the weight will be reduced. Therefore, the designer needs to optimize the rib shape and thickness for structure stiffness and injection molding. In order to solve this problem, we propose an optimization method using D.O.E and a response surface model, which is a multi-objective optimization method using the multi-objective genetic algorithm.

A new design based on the appropriate geometry of molded part and type of runner system under the optimal processing conditions was proposed to minimize the micro weld lines on the sub deco surface molded by two shot molding. Theoretical and experimental studies were conducted to examine the cause of the weld lines during the overmolding process in two shot molding. Various dimensions and geometries of substrate$(1^{st}shot)$ and the wall thickness of overmold$(2^{nd}shot)$ have been proposed to avoid the weld lines which are the most inevitable appearance defects occurred on the sub deco. The each design proposal was analyzed by mold flow analysis after part modeling. The analysis results were compared with molded part from mass production tool. It could be seen that from the analysis that the proper geometry of plastic part and type of runner system considering pressure drop under the optimal processing conditions were the most influential factors to avoid weld lines occured on the sub deco.

Micro-molded parts can be defined as parts with microgram weight, parts with micro-structured surface, and parts with micro-precision. In this study, various micro-scale molded parts for various polymers were produced by using a precision micro-molding machine. Molded parts with nano-structure surface were also produced to analyze the effect of molding conditions on replication of surface pattern and higher-order structure development of molded parts. Replication of molded parts was influenced by material properties, molding conditions and size of surface pattern. Higher-order structure of molded parts was investigated by using polarized microscope. Skin-shear-core regions inside the molded parts were observed and shear region affected to surface replication.

This paper presents a heuristic process-optimization procedure for minimizing warpage in injection-molded parts based on the dynamic robust design methodology. The injection molding process is known to have intrinsic variations of its process conditions due to various factors, including incomplete process control facilities. The aim of the robust design methodology advocated by Taguchi is to determine the optimum design variables in a system which is robust to variations in uncontrollable factors. The proposed procedure can determine the optimal robust conditions of injection molding processes at a minimum cost through a trade-off strategy between the degree of warpage and the packing time.

Despite technological advance, there have been several troubles in photo reaction injection molding (photo RIM) to produce ultra thin light guide panels (LGPs). In this study, micro leakage problem at cavity edge during photo RIM was investigated numerically. In order to obtain optimal processing conditions, we regulated inlet pressure of injected resin at the cavity edge and figured out micro leakage behaviors. At low inlet pressure (less than 100 Pa), though the micro leakage problem was not occurred, another problem, short shot due to not enough driving force, was appeared More than 1,000 Pa of the inlet pressure, injected resin was rapidly leaked through the micro gap at the cavity edge. Finally, we obtained optimal inlet pressure around 600 ~ 1,000 Pa. At this region, injected resin fully filled the cavity without micro leakage behavior. Based on the present study, further comparative investigations with experimental photo RIM should be performed to find optimal processing conditions for produce ultra thin LGPs.

In this paper, a mold temperature control method for injection molding is proposed. The inner surface of mold is locally heated by jet impingement to improve pattern transcription. Heating by hot jet is completed while the mold is open. An experimental system that realizes the proposed idea has been built, which includes mold, nozzle assembly and heater. Actual injection molding process including the proposed heating procedure has been conducted to verify the validity of the method. The process has been done for several conditions with different jet temperatures and duration of heating. The results from different conditions are compared.
